Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald has returned to the active roster Tuesday after missing two games due to COVID-19, the team announced.

The Cardinals lost both games Fitzgerald missed, falling to the New England Patriots in Week 12 and the Los Angeles Rams in Week 13.

Fitzgerald has 43 receptions for 336 yards over 10 appearances this season while playing third fiddle in the passing game to DeAndre Hopkins and Christian Kirk. The 37-year-old is on pace to finish below 700 receiving yards for the first time in his illustrious career.

Arizona will take a 6-6 record into Week 14, where they'll meet the surging New York Giants.
